The Fife Coastal Path is a Scottish long distance footpath that runs from North Queensferry to Tayport, by the Tay Bridge. The path was created in 2002 and runs for 82 miles (132km) along the coastline of Fife. It passes through many seaside villages and takes around six days to complete.

Along the route there is Aberdour Castle, Macduff's Castle near East Wemyss and Wemyss Castle; and also a range of diverse wildlife such as porpoises and puffins. The Fife Coastal Path is managed and maintained by Fife Coast and Countryside Trust which is a registered environmental charity.

The focal point of the Fife Coastal Path is the Harbourmaster's House, Dysart.
